I have been messing around with my 83' 25hp 2 stroke motor, electric start. I have had the carb replaced but the engine will not suck the gas out of the tank. i know it all has to be air tight and i have replaced all of the hoses and connectors from the tank to the carb, it has a new filter so i know there is no blockage. when i prime the the tank it will put enough gas in the engine to start it and the only way to keep the motor running (idle or WOT) is to pump the bulb, pretty much pumping the gas in the engine manually is the only to to make it run. Im not sure what else i can try. since i dont have much experience with this kind of stuff what is the average cost of a repair shop for something like this, i know it could be anything, but any ideas on a repair cost would be helpful. Thanks! Nick
